Supreme Swordsman of the Nine Heavens

Chapter 1119

Reflection Compass

“F-fancy seeing you two together,” was the best response Mu Yu had in the heat of the moment after hearing Tian Ran and Qiao Xue call his name together. As much as he wanted to give both of them a hug, he feared the potential beating since both of them already told him they hated philanderers.

Qiao Xue remarked, “It seems that somebody doesn’t want to see me.”

“Haha, no way. I’m on cloud nine I found you.”

“Oh, I see,” Tian Ran drawled, nodding.

Mu Yu palmed his face.

“Pretty lucky, aren’t you?” Xiang Nan teased.

“Please spare me.”

Xiang Nan gave Mu Yu a shoulder thump. “Long-time no see, Tian Ran.”

“It has been, Brother Xiang Nan,” Tian Ran cheerfully greeted. “When you went to Secular World Sect…”

“We saved your mother, and she’s safe. We intended to escort her to Formation Sect, but she said she had to watch over Lie Shang and I train.”

“Watch you train?”

Mu Yu did not buy it; he was certain that their shiniang, like their shifu, did not want to see Lie Shang and Xiang Nan continue down their path but was hopeless to stop them and, therefore, tried to rein them in as much as possible.

Xiang Nan smiled. “She’s safe now.”

“Thank you, Brother Xiang Nan,” expressed Tian Ran.

“Long-time no see, Qiao Xue,” Xiang Nan greeted.

While Tian Ran was in a good mood, Mu Yu decided to divert the topic. “Xiaoshuai, he’s Daidai, yeah?”

“Yeah, he’s A-Dai. He… He… I forgot what he used to do in the past. I just know I recognise him.” Xiaoshuai hopped down to A-Dai’s hand.

“Xiao Jianjian, you haven’t played with A-Dai in so long. A-Dai has been so board.” A-Dai sat down similarly to a kid and gave Xiaoshuai a peck on the head.

“Kekeke, call me Xiaoshuai from now. Xiao Jianjian doesn’t sound nice.”

“Okay, Xiao Jianjian. A-Dai likes Xiao Jianjian.”

“Xiaoshuai!”

“Okay, Xiaoshuai. By the way, Xiao Jianjian, where did you and Master go? Why didn’t you bring A-Dai along?”

“Xiaoshuai!”

Tian Ran relayed what happened on her hand while Xiaoshuai corrected and played with A-Dai. No matter who asked, they couldn’t get much out of A-Dai.

“Can A-Dai leave Ancient Battleground? Master told A-Dai that A-Mumu would take me out.”

“Who’s A-Mumu? Wait, A-Dai. Is A-Mumu Mu Yu?!”

“Shifu told A-Dai to see me? When did Shifu tell him that? A-Dai, when was the last time you met Shifu?” Mu Yu inquired.

“Who is shifu?”

“My shifu is Sword Shadow Dust Gale.”

“Oh, Master is your shifu. A-Dai also likes you, then. The last time I met Shifu was one year, two years, three years… ninety years…”

“I wasn’t even born that long ago. Anyway, we need to find everyone else. Bring A-Dai along. A-Dai, did Shifu tell you anything besides to wait for A-Mumu here?”

A-Dai scratched his head, tipped it right, then tipped it left. “A-Dai doesn’t know. He just told A-Dai that this round biscuit will guide A-Mumu.”

“Round cake?” Tian Ran took out the golden compass. “Oh, you mean this?”

“Yes, that.”

“Reflection Compass? Why is it here?” Xiaoshuai exclaimed.

“What compass?” Mu Yu questioned.

Xiaoshuai copied A-Dai, scratching his head. “I’m not too sure, either. It just came to mind.”

Mu Yu examined the compass with a glowing spot at the centre. Thankfully, his Apotheosis Realm and formation knowledge were adequate to make sense of the compass’ formation – barely. Upon pressing down on the black and white spots, the text “Reflection Compass” surfaced.

“What does Reflection Compass mean?” Xiaoshuai inquired.

Mu Yu double checked the text and conveyed, “I’m assuming it tells me where to go.”

“Hmm…” Suddenly, Xiaoshuai patted A-Dai on the head. “I get it now. When you hold Reflection Compass and think of someone, the compass will guide you to that person, but it does have a range limit.”

“Doesn’t that make it even better than Dragon Searching Formation?” Xiang Nan verbalised.

“Most likely. It’s something Shifu owned, after all. This might be able to help us locate the others,” opined Mu Yu.

“Wow,” remarked Qiao Xue.

“Hehe, the old man always comes up with wicked stuff. If I hold it and think of beautiful Qiao Xue, it’ll lead me to you.”

“Oh, I see. You only care for Qiao Xue. Is that it?” Tian Ran looked to Xiaoshuai.

“Ehehe, I also think of Sister Tian Ran, so I’ll come pick up Sister Tian Ran after, too.”

“What a good boy.” Qiao Xue pinched Xiaoshuai’s face.

Detecting the wrathful undertone in Qiao Xue’s voice, Xiaoshuai blurted, “I don’t know. I think who Mu Yu cares for most is what’s most important. Don’t you agree, Mu Yu?”

“You want to get hit? Why are you poking a sore spot?!” Mu Yu snapped.

Tian Ran placed her hands on her hips. “Where is your spare spot? Want me to work on it?”

“Uh, cough, cough, we need to find the others and then find a way out, right, Brother Xiang Nan?”

“Yeah,” Xiang Nan replied jovially.

Xiang Nan shrugged innocently when Qiao Xue and Tian Ran glared daggers his way.

“Let’s try to find First Brother Cheng Yan first to see if this works,” Mu Yu suggested. He infused the black and white dots with spirit energy whilst visualising Cheng Yan. The two points spun until they conjured Cheng Yan’s apparition. “That way.”
